Creepy, Spooky, Ghosty Stuff
I just can't seem to find anything very good like this...
I really liked Lenzi's Ghosthouse... Poltergeist was good, too...But there just hasn't been anything like that in such a long time I need some ideas in this department Something with atmosphere...A Creepy feel...like in the Silent Hill Games...You know that feeling, right? Ju-on did it pretty well... I want something that makes me feel something...I know you guys know what I'm talking about...Something that makes you feel a little uncomfortable...Well, I can't really explain it... Is there ANYTHING out there?...Anything with/about ghosts?...Anything supernatural that is actually GOOD? BTW...Just to let you know...I wasn't impressed with Suspiria at all... |

Join the club. Good use of colors, but that was about it. I can't help ya on this one though because The Frighteners was pretty much the only ghost movie I liked and that's like half slasher anyways. Skeleton Key was cooler than any ghost movie I can think of (except Frighteners) because I could possibly see it happening. (The fact that the main character is a total skeptic like me probably made this feel more real to me.) Cannibal Holocaust was the only one I've seen that made me uncomfortable. I don't enjoy watching real animals getting killed and I'm sure you know which part I'm refering to when I say I had to cross my legs. |

The 'uncomfortable' feeling I'm looking for isn't like 'disgust' or anything like that...It's more of a "oooh, that's freaky", heart-rate altering, slightly tense, scalp tingling from your hair trying to stand up, shift your sitting position, kinda 'uncomfortable'...Know what I mean? I want spoooooooky @Dave...I did like The Eye...But, it's not really like what I'm looking for right now |
Have you seen Skeleton Key? It didn't neccesarily spook me, but it might give you what you're looking for. It was darker than I was expecting from a PG-13. (Not much gore though.)

Lemora: A Child's Tale
Dead Ringers The Lady in White Devil's Backbone all creepy |
How about Session 9?
The last line of that one literally sent chills down my spine |
Quote:
You guys are definitely on the right track because I REALLY liked Devil's Backbone and Session 9 I haven't seen: Lemora: A Child's Tale Dead Ringers The Lady in White...Actually, that one seems familiar...I MAY have seen that one, but don't remember it... Thanks, I'm going to look into those Things that are there, but you can't see them...An unknown threat...Supernatural 'creepy'...Like Final Destination stuff, Silent Hill, Stay Alive, Madhouse, Dead End...THOSE were awesome |
Wow, I don't know of many people that liked BOTH Stay Alive & Skeleton Key but both were pleasent surprises for me. I thought they were both really good and I NEVER expect PG-13 horror to be very good.

The only ghosty, creepy, spooky movie that I know of and really love is: House on Haunted Hill (1958). It's an old movie, but has Vincent Price and really good plot twists.

Attic Expeditions, In The Mouth Of Madness, and Soul Survivors also had that kinda 'weird' vibe that I really like |
I thought The Woods was kinda creepy.

I looked up the description for IN The Woods...And that actually sounds very interesting...I'll be buying that one :) Quote:
Movie Description A lighthearted school outing takes a turn for the worst as all but three students are killed in a train tunnel's collapse. One of the three quickly goes mad as the result of claustrophobia, forcing the others to leave him behind. With no other option, the remaining pair (Ako and Teru) attempt to break free from the wreckage, only to realize that the world above the tunnel is in just as bad shape. Reduced to rubble, all of civilization appears to have been destroyed by some kind of Armageddon-like disaster. Alone, the two must find their way back to Tokyo through a maze of desperation fueled by the fear-inducing power of the ominously named Dragonhead. That actually sounds pretty good, too Thanks guys |

Prince of Darkness, EXTREMELY disturbing movie.
The Haunting, The Shining, The Changeling, The Blinging (just kidding) Of course Lady In White, particularly because of the Dracula mask scenes ;) |

God dammit, send them to me, then!! :mad: :mad: :eek: ;)
Going through my video shelf now for something you may not have seen... Oh, fuck! Here's one. This is my favorite ghost movie made recently. BELOW http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0...CLZZZZZZZ_.jpg |
I think Bruce Campbell has a part in The Woods.
I like pretty much every Vincent Price film I've ever seen. |
Quote:
"Dark Remains" comes closest. ;) |
The Haunting(1963)is the creepiest most atmospheric movie i have ever seen,pretty well known though so i guess you have seen it?
|
Quote:
I thought "The innocets" (1961) were creepier. :) |

Thanks! |

This thread deserves to be seen more. Even the title is weird!
If you get the "Monsters Crash the Pajama Party" DVD, you can watch Bert Gordon's short feature "Tormented," a ghost vendetta movie. Good cheesy and somewhat creepy and effective for its low budget. |
my mum with no teeth!!
freaky as fuck |
oooh for this i would have to always revert back to the classics..
especially movies like Lady in White. Not so much where gore is concerned. |
I might just look into Asian horror.
They sound pretty cool |
Quote:
sounds like a plan :p |
Em not so much into gore or slashers.
My kind of horror is the real ghost stories.. you know spectre' or the unseen eerie kind of script. |
That sounds like just the sort of weird off the wall movie I like.
|
not many things freak me out but
slugs and eels..'shivers' We have this place here in NZ called rainbow springs where the oldest living eel lives.(Rotovegas) As a child i remember looking in the water and i saw nothing but darkness.. just pure black..then in slow motion, like in a movie..these 2 white eyes looked up at me..and i mean in slow motion. Then the blackness disappeared, seemed to go on for a good 3 minutes.. the full length of the eel as he was swimming away. Farrrrrrrrrk!! |
No thanks, I will probably buy that one... I was thinking about, I don't know if I mentioned it before but Web of the Spider, and its original version...I have to look this up. Castle of Blood starring Barbara Steele. Web of the Spider is the remake, and that's the one I saw first. I liked the remake better even though people tell me the original is better. Whatever, they're basically the same movie, except one is in color and a little more graphically nasty.
